Mclennan Oscillator

[Keith]

Hello…  Can you check out if it is possible to add the McLellan Oscillator to the Optima toolbox?  The formula is as follows:

The Formula for the McClellan Oscillator is
There are two formulas for the McClellan oscillator. The original formula, and one that adjusts for changes in the number of stocks listed on the stock exchange. The adjusted formula allows for a better comparison of values over longer periods of time.2

Hi Keith,

We’re looking to add it to our breadth data in the near future, but in the meantime you can create it using the script formula in this post:
